Description
This VEO 3 GO 235AB Aluminum Tripod/Monopod with T-50 Ball Head from Vanguard is a support system that features a tripod with a detachable leg and removable center column that can be combined to form a monopod with a 54.3" height. Cameras, lenses, or sport optics that are compatible with a 1/4"-20 mount can be connected to the included quick release plate, which is secured to the tripod/monopod's ball head using an Arca-type quick release clamp. The T-50 Ball Head is removable, provides up to a 91 tilt for portrait orientation and 360 of independent rotation, and can be locked into place along its range of movement. Also provided is a smartphone connector and a Bluetooth remote, allowing the monopod formed by the detachable leg and removable center column to be used as a smartphone selfie stick. When configured as a tripod, the VEO 3 GO 235AB Aluminum Tripod/Monopod with T-50 Ball Head supports up to 8.8 lb and measures 13" when folded. Each of its 5-section legs features an independent spread, a 3-position angle lock, and twist locks for rapid deployment. As a tripod, it can be set at a minimum height of 7.9" when its removable, push-and-pull, rapid center column is substituted with the included Low-Angle Adapter. Together, the three legs can be extended to obtain a maximum height of 41.8 or 53.3" when used with the center column fully raised. Each of the aluminum alloy legs includes a rubber foot, and to further enhance stability on a wide variety of surfaces, including soft or uneven soil, a set of spiked feet is also provided. For added versatility, the center column is reversible, facilitating lower-angle photography where an attached camera is positioned among the tripod's legs instead of above them. A carry bag is provided for storage and transport.Use and Handling Supports up to 8.8 lbPush-and-pull, twist-lock rapid center column with ballast hook for rapid camera, lens, or sport optic positioningCan be set for a maximum height of 41.8", or 53.3" with the center column fully raisedLow-Angle Adapter allows minimum height of 7.9"Can be set to a minimum height when its removable, push-and-pull, rapid center column is substituted with the included Low-Angle AdapterCenter column is reversible, facilitating lower-angle photography where an attached camera is positioned among the tripod's legs instead of above themLegs each feature 5 sections, with twist locks for fast deployment, and can be independently spreadLegs can be locked at 21, 50, or 80 anglesRubber feet help to enhance stability on a wide variety of surfacesSpiked feet are also provided to further enhance stability on a wide variety of surfaces, including soft or uneven soilWeighs 2.7 lb, measures 13" when legs are reversed 180 and foldedArca-type T-50 Ball Head provides up to a 91 tilt for portrait orientation and 360 of independent rotation, and it can be locked into place along its range of movementRemovable center column and one detachable tripod leg can be configured as a monopod with a 54.3" height along with the included ball headIncluded smartphone connector and Bluetooth remote allow the monopod formed by the detachable leg and removable center column to be used as a smartphone selfie stickConstruction Details Aluminum alloy legsT-50 Arca-type ball headQS-64 Arca-type quick release plate1/4"-20 to 3/8"-16 reversible mount for center column allows attachment of accessories that feature 3/8"-16 accessory threadsIncluded carry bag for storage and transport of the tripod with ball head
